Question 12
12. A was a rider for one of the largest online shopping platforms in the Philippines. She
collected several parcels from XYZ Retail Store for delivery to the customers. She
immediately noticed though the unique smell emanating from the parcels but chose
to ignore the same. While she was driving, a stray dog suddenly crossed the road,
prompting her to hit the brakes hard. As a result, one of the parcels fell and burst,
revealing several grams of dried cannabis (marijuana). A reported the incident to the
nearby police station. Consequently, the owner of XYZ Retail Store, B, was charged
with illegal sale of dangerous drugs. In his defense, B invoked his right against
unreasonable search and seizure which A allegedly violated when the latter
mishandled the parcel. Is B correct? Reason(s).
